As part of ICI’s Curator’s Perspective—an itinerant public discussion series featuring national and international curators—Shuddhabrata Sengupta of the Raqs Media Collective, New Delhi will present on Raqs' recent curatorial projects.
For his Curator’s Perspective talk, Sengupta will discuss the modalities of occasional curating situated within a collective artistic practice. The Raqs Collective's work straddles artistic practice, curatorial projects, theoretical interventions, critical writing, research and teaching. This variety is often perceived as if it were a series of very different moves. For Raqs, the line between artistic, intellectual and curatorial work, though present, is a set of shifting markers. Sengupta will make a case for the interweaving of different strands within the practice of Raqs, and argue for a kind of fluid dynamics between the making of art, curation and critical research.
Please RSVP to rsvp@curatorsintl.org with SENGUPTA in the subject line.
Organized in collaboration with the Vera List Center for Art and Politics, The New School
